Monument Grills Review: Performance, Features, and Value Guide

You’re only as good a grill master as the equipment you use. Over the years I’ve tried several grills, and when Monument Grills asked if I’d review one of theirs, I jumped at the chance — it did not disappoint.

Disclosure: I include affiliate links to products I use and recommend. Monument Grills provided the grill for this review; I received no other monetary compensation. All opinions are based on my hands-on experience.

You might think all gas grills are the same, but build quality and thoughtful features vary a lot between brands. The feature that stood out to me most on this Monument grill is the viewing window — I hadn’t seen that on many other models, and it has been the most commented-on detail when friends check out the grill.

Who Is Monument Grills

Monument Grills was founded in 2016 in Atlanta, Georgia. They produce charcoal, gas, and pellet grills with a focus on strong performance at competitive prices. Their lineup includes a variety of sizes and configurations to suit weekend cooks and serious grillmasters alike.

Assembling Monument Grills

I’m used to buying preassembled grills, so I was a bit nervous about assembly. I received the Monument Grills Stainless 35633 and found the build straightforward. The only step that required an extra pair of hands was setting the grill box onto the cart. A teenager helped me for that brief moment; the rest I assembled alone.

• Lay out all parts and skim the instructions before starting; that saved time and prevented errors.
• Use a magnetic-tip Phillips screwdriver — a small screw can easily fall through a deck slat if you’re not careful.

Monument Grills Review

My experience with the Monument Grills Stainless 35633 has been very positive. The viewing window is my favorite feature — it lets me check progress without opening the lid and losing heat. I’ll admit I’m the type who often wants to peek, so the window solves that urge cleanly.

For the grill’s maiden voyage I cooked tilapia in foil, vegetables, and chicken. Everything came out great — the grill fires reliably and maintains even temperature and steady flame through the cook.

I tested the grill on a 100-degree day and had no issues with performance. I also used the side burner, which expands what you can cook at once and is handy for sauces or quick sides when you don’t want to run back inside.

Beyond the window, the illuminated control knobs are another thoughtful touch. A switch controls knob lighting, and a USB-powered light accessory can provide additional illumination for nighttime grilling. It doesn’t change cook performance, but it looks great on the deck and improves usability after dark.
